With the Tennessee Titans’ preseason Week 1 game in the books, it’s time to take a look at the team’s snap counts from the loss to the Chicago Bears.
Snap counts can tell us a lot, especially during the preseason. Lower snap counts can be an indication a team didn’t need an extended look at a player, which means they tend to be safer in their bid for a roster spot.
But a low snap count can also mean a player left early due to injury, so keep that in mind.
Before we get to the snap counts and the biggest takeaways from them, here’s the list of players who didn’t suit up in preseason Week 1:
QB Ryan Tannehill, RB Derrick Henry, WRs DeAndre Hopkins and Treylon Burks, TEs Chig Okonkwo, Trevon Wesco and Alize Mack (injury), OL John Ojukwu (injury) and Dillon Radunz (PUP), DL Jeffery Simmons, Teair Tart, Denico Autry and Naquan Jones (injury), LB Azeez Al-Shaair, OLBs Arden Key and Harold Landry, CBs Kristian Fulton, Sean Murphy-Bunting, Roger McCreary and Caleb Farley (PUP), S Kevin Byard, Amani Hooker and A.J. Moore (injury), DBs Josh Thompson (NFI) and Chris Jackson (injury).
Just a note: players listed with “injury” are assumed based on their having missed the team’s last full practice on Thursday.
Now, the analysis of the snap counts.
